Ohio State and Montana State are locked in a surprisingly tight NCAA Tournament first-round game, given that OSU, the No. 4 seed, was a double-digit favorite against the No. 13 Bobcats.
That has led to some heated moments, and Ohio State coach Kevin McGuff was called for a technical foul for arguing a series of calls against the Buckeyes, including a questionable third personal on Taylor Thierry as she was tracking down a loose ball.
Montana State took a 25-23 lead on the resulting free throw shots taken by Natalie Picton, and then Picton made a layup on the following possession to extend the Bobcats advantage to 27-23.
The Buckeyes, however, responded with a 9-0 run and jumped back in front 32-27 at halftime.
